I'll make this nutella-ish spread every so often, and store the leftovers in the freezer. It's sweet without being loaded with added sugars, and goes great on toasted 100% Whole Wheat Bread or on nut butter recipes!

- 2 tbsp (10 g) Cocoa powder
- 1/2 tsp (2.5 g) Liquid monk fruit
- 1 scoop (30 g) Whey protein powder, unflavored
- 6 tbsp (90 g) Unsweetened applesauce
- 1/2 tsp (2.5 g) Almond extract
